Mission Arts and Crafts is the marriage of two of two similar aesthetics that emerged throughout the 1800s and is still popular today. Often you hear people describe furniture of this era as Craftsman, Arts and Crafts, and Mission. Below you can read more about Mission, Arts and Crafts, as well as check out some items currently on our showroom!

According to Wiki, "Mission furniture is a style of furniture that originated in the late 19th Century. It traces its origins to a chair made by A.J. Forbes around 1894 for San Francisco's Swedenborgian Church (San Francisco, California). The term mission furniture was first popularized by Joseph P. McHugh of New York, a furniture manufacturer and retailer who copied these chairs and offered a line of stylistically related furnishings by 1898. The word mission references the Spanish missions throughout colonial California, though the design of most Mission Style furniture owed little to the original furnishings of these missions. The style became increasingly popular following the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901. The style was popularly associated with the American Arts and Crafts movement."

New Mission Workshop explains, "Arts and Crafts style began in England, Australia, America and Canada between 1880 and 1910 as a backlash response to the industrial revolution of the time. It was instigated in the 1860s by artist/write William Morris, who created the “Morris Chair” we still have with us today. The backlash was by artisans fighting back against “soul-less” mass-produced items from large factories. Also, it was a backlash against lavish ornamentation of the Victorian age. They were in favor of the master craftsman, who created all the parts of an item and assembled and finished it, with help from apprentices. This is in contrast to manufacturing plants, whose goal it was to turn out the most pieces possible." Read more on their blog here.

Over the last few months, we've expanded our inventory to include a wider range of home accessories. If you've been by the shop, as of late, you might notice the beautiful works of Hanna Traynham.

Hanna is a ceramicist and a high school art teacher. When she's not teaching you can find her at her studio, Turning Earth Studios, making unique, stunning ceramics.

According to her website, "Hanna pushes the limits of the material, piercing her wheel thrown forms with careful attention to how the piece may alter under the high heat of the firing. Often her work will slump, acquiring an entirely organic movement that occurs only by nature." Just look at these incredible designs.

If you're looking for a new home accessory that stands out, make sure to stop by our store and check out the lovely ceramic work of Hanna Traynham!

We're always thrilled to find a Milo Baughman piece, and we knew we found a gem when we came across this beauty.

According to Wikipedia, "Milo Ray Baughman, Jr., born in Goodland, Kansas on October 7, 1923, was a modern furniture designer. His American designs were forward-thinking and distinctive, yet unpretentious and affordable. Contemporary furniture designers and dealers continue to copy, reinvent, and revive his work in the new and secondary decorative arts markets."

"Baughman designed for a number of furniture companies starting in the mid-1940s until his death, including Mode Furniture, Glenn of California, The Inco Company, Pacific Iron, Murray Furniture of Winchendon, Arch Gordon, Design Institute America, George Kovacs, Directional, Henredon and Drexel, among others. He is most famous, however, for his longtime association with Thayer Coggin Inc., of High Point, NC, which began in 1953 and lasted until his death in 2003."

We're getting into the patriotic spirit this weekend with our July 4th Sale! This weekend through the 4th, we're offering 20% off Mid Century Modern and 20th Century Design, as well as 15% off Mission Arts and Crafts!

If you've been eyeing a new credenza or dining room table, this is the weekend to take advantage of some serious savings.

Originally created in 1950 by Russell Spanner, the Lounge Chair with Arms has become a classic of Canadian Mid-Century Modern furniture design. Out of production for more than 50 years, Gus* worked in collaboration with the Spanner family to revive this iconic chair, carefully matching the construction, materials, and design details to stay true to the original in every way.

The seat is woven strapping, and the frame is solid birch with exposed bolts and finger-joint details. Like the original, the Lounge Chair with Arms is built in Toronto and available in a variety of finishes. To commemorate the return of this design classic, the first 100 chairs produced will be part of a numbered, limited edition series.

Recently we’ve brought on some exciting new partnerships to help enhance your shopping experience. One of the biggest expansions to our store is the introduction of Gus* Modern! We’re happy to be partnering up with a company that believes quality and style go hand in hand!

We were thrilled to be scouted by Gus*. When they approached us earlier this year, we felt their items were a good match for our store, and we were eager to move forward. After a lot of phone calls, emails, and a quick flight to North Carolina, we had landed a great deal with a great company.

Gus* Design Group is a furniture design and manufacturing company based in Toronto, Canada. The company was started by some like-minded friends who shared a passion for design, and had a vision to create an exclusive line of modern furniture that would continue Mid-century traditions, emphasizing originality, functionality, simplicity, and a focus on materials and craftsmanship. Today, the in-stock Gus* Modern Collection includes upholstery, beds, dining, storage, lighting, and accents, and is available at authorized furniture showrooms worldwide. Gus* has become a favorite choice of interior designers, architects, and design-minded consumers.

The new inventory arrived this week! We’re slowly getting items out on the showroom, so be sure to stop by the store this weekend, and have a look at all the new inventory! You can also shop more Gus* Modern products here.
